Scheduling the Execution of a Campaign

Do not perform this procedure if you already plan to automatically schedule the parent stage for the same campaign. Doing so will cause the campaign to be launched twice.

To schedule the execution of a campaign:

1. Navigate to the Campaigns screen.
2. In the Campaign list, drill down on the campaign name.
3. Select the Schedule view tab.
4. In the Schedule calendar, click the calendar icon in the day that the campaign will start.
5. In the activity form, in the Activity Type field, select Campaign Load and complete the remaining fields using Table 24 as a guide.

   NOTE:  Be sure to check the Active Flag for the scheduling to take effect. If the active flag is set, the campaign load will launch as soon as the activity time arrives. If the active flag is not set, no execution will occur.

6. Click Save This One when you are ready to save the schedule.

   The campaign name and load time appear in the Schedule calendar. The calendar also reflects any recurrence of the activity.

7. Click New to create another activity.
8. In the activity form, in the Activity Type field, select Campaign Launch and complete the remaining fields using Table 24 as a guide.

   Make sure to set the start time of the campaign launch activity so that the preceding campaign load activity will be complete before the corresponding campaign launch begins.

9. Verify that the Active Flag is set so that the scheduling will take effect.
10. Click Save This One when you are ready to save the schedule.

    The campaign name and launch time appear in the Schedule calendar. The calendar also reflects any recurrence of the activity.
